As we welcome summertime with longer days of June sunshine, it’s time to start adapting skin regimens toward more lightweight, oil-free, medical-grade treatments. Greater time spent outdoors means that patients will be exposed to environmental pollution and sun, which they need to protect against with antioxidants in addition to their SPFs.
CosMedical offers two lightweight, antioxidant-rich serums that are must-haves for the coming hot season: Green Tea Antioxidant Serum and C-Stem®.
Green Tea Antioxidant Serum
Green Tea Antioxidant Serum is a nutrient-filled, soothing mattifier. It’s an oil-free serum that is excellent at providing hydration to oily and acne-prone skin. In addition to hydration, this product uses a sustainably sourced 5% green tea extract that is packed with restorative nutrients, such as polyphenols. It’s an antioxidant complex that protects skin against environmental hazards, helps clear acne and soothes redness and irritation.
Green Tea Antioxidant Serum also contains vitamin E and hyaluronic acid. Like green tea, vitamin E is an antioxidant that restores and repairs the skin barrier, helping treat acne, calm redness and protect against irritation. Hyaluronic acid is a strong humectant moisturizer that holds 1,000x its weight in water, helping smooth and hydrate skin.
Why Green Tea Antioxidant Serum is perfect for summer:
- Mattifying, lightweight moisturizer. Excellent primer for oily or acneic skin.
- Several antioxidant nutrients help protect against and repair sun damage.
- Lessens breakouts and soothes redness.
- Repairs and protects skin barrier from environmental damage.
C-Stem®
C-Stem® is a concentrated anti-aging serum that significantly reduces inflammation. Powered by tetrahexyldecyl ascorbate, a collagen-boosting form of vitamin C, C-Stem® is rich in protective and brightening antioxidant nutrients. Vitamin C even has sun-protection properties, helping absorb UV rays and repairing damage related to photoaging.
In addition to vitamin C, C-Stem® uses lilac stem cells and two algae extracts. These advanced ingredients modulate gene expression in skin cells, promoting youthful genes and decreasing progerin, the skin’s aging protein. These soothing active ingredients further help to lessen inflammation, redness, hyperpigmentation and breakouts.
Why C-Stem® is perfect for summer:
- Shields from environmental toxins, free radicals and UV rays.
- Reduces hyperpigmentation, redness and breakouts. Brightens skin tone.
- Reverses skin aging processes and reduces the appearance of lines and wrinkles.
- Plumps skin appearance with a hyaluronic acid boost.
How To Offer C-Stem® and Green Tea Antioxidant Serum
While these two superhero serums are perfect summertime products for everyone, they’re particularly effective when used as part of a full, goal-oriented regimen. Green Tea Antioxidant Serum is a part of our Acne Control System, which is the perfect routine for patients sensitive to environmental damage and breakouts. C-Stem®, on the other hand, is a heavy-lifter in our Age Reverse System, which helps brighten, reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles, and protect against visible signs of aging.
With Father’s Day around the corner, patients should also consider C-Stem® and Green Tea Antioxidant Serum as gifts for dad — both of these products are equally as effective for men and are lightweight, quickly absorbed formulas. They’re each effective as one-step formulas, packed with a wide range of benefits that even new skincare users will notice and appreciate.
